[Verse 1] Take me as I am or let me go Why must you always try to make me over Take me as I am or let me go White lilies never grow on stalks of clover Take me as I am or let me go [Chorus] You're trying to reshape me in a mold love In the image of someone you used to know But I won't be a standing for an old love Take me as I am or let me go Take me as I am or let me go [Verse 2] You've tried to change me ever since you met me Take me as I am or let me go If you can't overlook my faults forget me Take me as I am or let me go [Chorus]
